If you’re craving a creamy, refreshing iced coffee that’s keto-friendly and feels like a mini tropical vacation, this recipe is for you!
It’s super easy, takes just a few minutes, and is loaded with flavor.
The coconut milk makes it rich and smooth, while a touch of vanilla and a sprinkle of cinnamon give it that “wow” factor.
Perfect for busy mornings, an afternoon pick-me-up, or even as a guilt-free dessert drink!
Let’s make it together!
What You’ll Need
- 1 cup freshly brewed coffee, cooled
- 1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk (from a can or carton)
- 1-2 tbsp heavy cream (optional for extra creaminess)
- 1-2 tbsp keto-friendly sweetener (like erythritol or monk fruit)
- 1/4 tsp pure vanilla extract
- A pinch of ground cinnamon (plus more for garnish)
- Ice cubes
Pro Tips
- Use chilled coffee – Brew your coffee ahead of time and let it cool completely to avoid melting the ice too quickly.
- Adjust sweetness – Taste and tweak the amount of sweetener to match your preference. Start small—you can always add more!
- Blend it for froth – Want a café-style vibe? Toss all the ingredients into a blender for a frothy finish.
- Make it extra tropical – Add a tiny drop of coconut extract for a stronger coconut flavor.
- Kid-friendly version – Swap the coffee for decaf or cold brew tea so everyone can enjoy.
Tools You’ll Need
- Coffee maker or French press
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Tall glass or jar
- Spoon for stirring
Substitutions and Variations
- Coconut milk: Use almond milk or cashew milk if you prefer.
- Sweetener: Regular sugar works if you’re not keto, or skip it altogether for a more natural coffee flavor.
- Heavy cream: Swap with half-and-half or leave it out for a lighter drink.
- Add-ins: A dollop of whipped cream or a drizzle of sugar-free caramel sauce takes this over the top!
Make Ahead Tips
Brew a batch of coffee and keep it in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can even pre-mix the coconut milk, sweetener, and vanilla, so all you have to do is pour and go!
